Corey Briggs named as AIHA Fellow
The NEAIHA Executive
Committee is pleased to announce that Corey Briggs has been named as
an AIHA Fellow by AIHA’s Awards Committee and Board of Directors.
Corey has been a
long-time member of both AIHA and the New England Local Section, and
has made significant contributions to both the IH profession and to
our local section. Only five percent of the AIHA membership can
qualify for the Fellow Award, so we are very proud of Corey.
Corey will be honored, along with other 2013 AIHA Fellows, at this
year’s AIHce in Montreal, during the General Session
on
Wednesday, May 22.
ABIH Discontinues Reviews of the CM Point Requests for Category 4 Education Events
ABIH has discontinued all CM point request reviews for Category 4 Education events (with one exception as noted below). Instead, individuals will have to calculate their own CM points. ABIH plans on providing additional information and guidance such as updated CM worksheets, point calculation tools, and guidance documents. ABIH posted an initial announcement in November and an update in December.
NEAIHA will assist in easing this transition and ensure that meeting agendas show the number of hours of technical content and calculated CM points.

Communication
We
are doing almost all of our communication electronically these days.
